## Abstract ^123^I‐labeled fatty acids and ^18^F‐FDG are used as metabolic markers for detecting myocardial abnormalities. However, a ^99m^Tc‐based molecule may find wider application. In the present work, a new ^99m^Tc‐labeled, uni‐positively charged, 16‐carbon fatty acid has been prepared and eva
## Abstract Radiolabeled fatty acids are used as tracers for myocardial metabolic imaging and currently ^123^I‐iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid (IPPA) or ^123^I‐__β__‐methyl‐iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) are the agents of choice. However, ^123^I being a cyclotron‐produced isotope, ^99m^Tc‐labe
